The information given to Sui Xiong by the God of Redemption mainly includes the geography of the continent, some powerful beings worthy of attention, and most importantly, the knowledge that a god should know.
What is God? How to be a good god? What are the principles for building the Kingdom of God? How should you choose your priesthood? Acquisition and use of divine power? What is the relationship between divinity and combat effectiveness? Etc., etc.
For questions such as these, a new god with a divine system will definitely get them from his predecessors or superiors. But for those gods who started from scratch alone, it is a secret that is difficult to obtain. The God of Redemption obviously had no secrets. He taught Sui Xiong the "life experience" he had accumulated over the long years in detail. The content was rich, the records were detailed, and there were many examples of extremely educational significance, which benefited him a lot. .
A few days later, when he fully understood the information and memorized the more important ones, he finally passed the stage of "unfamiliar with the place where he was born" and became a person who had a relatively accurate understanding of the world and could rest assured. Visitors from foreign lands traveling around the country.
Then, he took Palin with him and started traveling through the four towns in the northwest.
The first stop is Dragon Roar Town - there is a reward of 5,000 gold coins for the task of expelling the evil dragon. This money can be of great help in building a pioneer village!
Longhou Town is the northernmost of the four northwest towns. The name of this town comes from the evil dragon that lives in the nearby mountains and is called the "Extreme Cold Tyrant".
Decades ago, before this evil dragon came here, this town was called "Hunter Town" because the main output came from hunting in the nearby mountains and there were many professional hunters in the village.
Although the Extreme Cold Tyrant is powerful and terrifying, its attack type is actually not very strong. Until now, the main output of Longhou Town is still the hunting of monsters in the mountains, and it has not been greatly affected by the presence of giant dragons in the mountains.
Of course, every few years, the blue-white dragon with scales as smooth and cold as ice would attack this town. Its purpose is of course not to eat people or destroy, but to extort gold coins.
This giant dragon seems to regard Longhou Town as a large cash machine, the kind where you can swipe your card with your face without requiring any actual credentials, and it also has an account with unlimited overdraft. Her arrogance is comparable to that of some top-notch gold diggers who go straight to a high-end restaurant on the first date and buy a Chanel set after dinner. However, Longhouzhen is not a domineering president with a stack of unlimited overdraft black gold cards. It's not a rich second generation who can take tens of millions for casual entertainment, it's just an ordinary small town.
To the people in this town, maybe the giant dragon that comes regularly to plunder is a hateful tax collector, right
Apart from the dragon plunder, Dragon Roar Town is generally quite peaceful. The most interesting thing in the town is that occasionally powerful hunters hunt powerful monsters. A group of people drag the big monsters back like ants moving mountains and break them down outside the town.
It is a scene that is famous not only in the four northwest towns, but even in the entire continent. Curious people often travel across mountains and rivers to Longhou Town to see such a scene.
When Sui Xiong and Palin came to town, the hunting team had just killed an earthly dragon. The decomposition work has been carried out for the second day, and it is expected that it will be completed in another day.
Even if it was dead, the corpse of the giant beast that was probably taller than Gerald lying on the ground was placed in the huge square outside the town. This square was prepared for breaking down prey. It took the Church of the God of Hunting almost ten years to complete it. The huge square, which is almost half the size of the town, is completely covered with blue-black stone slabs. Each stone slab is engraved with the holy symbol of the God of Hunting, and is enchanted through sacred rituals. As long as the prey is transported here, it will no longer rot and deteriorate, and can slowly decompose with peace of mind. And even if the prey is slightly rotten, you can ask the priest of the God of Hunting to use magic to restore its texture. This wonderful magic is unique to the God of Hunting, and it is also an important economy of the church under his command. source.
Looking from a distance, the corpse of the giant beast, which was bigger than a big house, was lying on the stone slab. Several senior hunters were busy dismantling it bit by bit with sharp blades. Next to them, a group of young people were doing the killing, and there were even eager businessmen with... The truck was waiting here, and Sui Xiong couldn't help but laugh.
"This place is thriving and full of vitality!"
"Indeed, compared to other places in the Four Towns, the people in Longhou Town are more confident and energetic. Probably because they have been fighting World of Warcraft all year round. People who lack courage and self-confidence simply cannot live in such a place. Come down." Because Gerald wanted to maintain order among the pioneers and train his men at the same time, Sui Xiong's guide became Palin. The young mage has a good impression of hunters who can hunt large monsters with courage and wisdom, and his words are full of praise.
Of course he was right, but he missed an important reason: this town will be attacked by a giant dragon every few years. The power of the dragon is extremely terrifying. No one who can hold on will be frightened and run away. , often have developed an extremely strong heart and extremely tough nerves.
You’ve even seen the dragon coming, so what else is there to be afraid of
Therefore, the people in Longhou Town generally have an optimistic spirit with a little self-destruction. They are all cheerful and cheerful, with a smile on their lips all day long.
Heavily armed hunters can be seen everywhere on the streets here. To hunt in the mountains where monsters are infested, reliable equipment is indispensable. Therefore, this is also the largest weapons and armor trading place in the four northwest towns. As long as you have enough money in your pocket, even if It is a powerful weapon that can fight dragons. Even the legendary dragon-slaying sword is not impossible to buy.
... As for those who think they can slay dragons with a dragon-slaying knife, they have such low intelligence. Instead of going out to harm society, it is better to die early and be reborn, and be more thoughtful in the next life.
"Is there really a dragon-slaying sword for sale here?" Hearing what Palin said, Sui Xiong couldn't help but curiously asked, "Isn't it a 'dragon-slaying sword, click and get it'?"
"What is a click? Why give me a dragon-slaying knife?"
Sui Xiong chuckled twice and urged Palin to go to the weapons store quickly. He wanted to see what the "Dragon Slaying Sword" in this world looked like.
There are several weapons shops in Longhou Town. Palin, who has been here before, went directly to the largest one, and the name of this weapons shop was impressively called "Dragon Slaying Sword".
As soon as he entered the door, he saw a huge machete wider than his body and taller than others hanging on the huge pillar supporting the roof.
"Here, this is the dragon-slaying knife."
The black bone bracelet on his wrist flashed with light, and Sui Xiong used his soul power to try to analyze the structure of the sword in order to imitate it in the future.
But he soon regretfully discovered that there was nothing special about this knife. It was just larger and heavier, the material was denser and stronger, and there were a few magic circles engraved on the blade, and that was it.
"Is this knife a sample or a real thing?" he couldn't help but ask.
Palin asked the clerk at the weapons store, and the clerk assured him that the knife was genuine and definitely a dragon-slaying sword.
So Sui Xiong checked it carefully from inside to outside.
Definitely an ordinary knife!
It is true that the material it uses is quite good, it is the finest stainless steel, and it is also well made. There is not even a single bubble hidden in the blade. Sui Xiong could even clearly figure out that a lot of thought went into every hammer and quenching that went into making this knife. But just that, can it be called a dragon-slaying sword
Could it be that it was just because of the enchantment on the blade
There are four magic effects attached to this knife. "Sharpness", "Strongness" and "Swiftness" are constant, and "Gravity Change" is temporarily activated by the user, that's all.
With just these four magics, a large steel knife becomes a dragon-slaying sword
Sui Xiong clicked his tongue: "Sure enough, when it comes to bragging, businessmen in any world are the same! What about Antarctic people who are not afraid of the cold, what about the dragon-slaying sword... all the same!"
"Your Majesty, do you think this knife is a fake?" Palin asked curiously.
"How can I put it... If Gerald holds this knife - assuming he can use a knife in addition to an ax - he will definitely be able to slay the dragon. But the key to slaying the dragon is not the knife, but Gerald Germany. If it were a coward like Rhodes, even if he were given ten knives like this, he would run away with his head in his arms when encountering a giant dragon, and he would probably throw away all the knives in order to run faster!"
"In other words, this knife is actually not bad, it's just a little exaggerated..." Palin said, "Perhaps the craftsman who made this knife just hopes that its reputation can attract real legendary strongmen. Please Did they take action to repel or even kill the dragon?"
"Maybe." Sui Xiong lost interest in this exaggerated knife and turned his attention to other weapons in the store.
If you look closely, you will see that the weapons in this store are actually quite high-quality. If the requirements are not raised to the level of "dragon slaying", there are still a lot of good things that can be seen.
For example, he quickly fell in love with a long dagger, which was made of a special material called "Ice Iron". Several external enchantments made it sharper, stronger, and faster to swing. , and can also produce phantoms when swung, confusing the enemy's sight.
If it were just like this, it wouldn't make Sui Xiong look at it differently, but this dagger also has a hidden secret - inside it is embedded the magic core of the fire attribute monster "Red Flame Rhinoceros". Through the magic circle on the dagger, strong flame power can be stimulated when necessary, and the dagger then becomes a buffering intermediary, just like the hilt of a sword.
In other words, it is not only a sharp dagger containing the power of ice, but can also be turned into a flaming sword when necessary. Such a change is definitely beyond the enemy's expectation. In actual combat, it is likely to have unexpected effects, and it is easy to win in one fell swoop.
Sui Xiong's new disciple Rhodes did not fare well. As the vice-president of the Thieves Guild, the weapon he carried was only a long dagger made of fine steel with a "sharp" effect. The mediocre material and not particularly brilliant craftsmanship, even with the effect of enchantment, are far inferior to the dagger named "Ice Soul". If two weapons collide head-on, they are likely to be cut off at once. As for the further changes and flames, there is a huge difference between heaven and earth, completely incomparable.
The super-giant battle ax used by Gerald was not in stock here, so Sui Xiong planned to help the down-and-out Rhodes prepare a handy weapon, lest the appraiser, who was already not very skilled, be killed by a skeleton one day.
Well, in his opinion, apart from gods, the only creatures that don't need the prefix "poor skill" are the narwhal whales he encountered in the sea and the four-faced monster he had eaten not long ago. According to his ideal, as his early believer, he must at least reach that level in order to reassure him.
Although it is said that even if you are holding a dragon-slaying knife, a novice cannot slay a dragon but will only be killed by it, but after all, it is wrong to rely on the golden man and his clothes, and jump directly from the weapon-only theory to the spiritual atomic bomb...
"Is it necessary to buy weapons for Rhodes? That guy obviously came to your majesty for the benefit. His belief is not pious at all!" After learning what Sui Xiong meant, Palin was immediately indignant.
In his view, only piety is worthy of God's reward.
But Sui Xiong doesn't think so. He is an earthling, and more specifically a Chinese. The Chinese attitude towards faith is "I believe in God, and God will give me benefits in a fair exchange." Rhodes did believe in him and was still working for him. He was so busy these days that his heels were barely touching the ground. Even now, he is still running around and working hard.
Sui Xiong saw his efforts. It is human nature to want to be rewarded.
The gods in this world require believers to give unconditionally, and are only judged by the degree of piety of their faith. He does not agree with this approach!
